We play all types of games, but lean a little towards social deduction and lighter games. **NEW TO THE MEETUP?** Thanks for coming! We hope you enjoy yourself. We are a social, friendly group that meets to play games. Language and behavior that is racist, sexist, ableist, ageist, and so on, is not tolerated. Bullying and bad-mouthing the other guests or hosts are also not tolerated. We're not here to debate politics, and we are not a dating service. Obviously gaming can sometimes include trash talking. Just … know if your opponents are up for that! And look, we all make mistakes -- if you’ve offended someone, an apology can go a long way. Please don’t use this game day to try to raise money for your business.

You're welcome to drop in and leave whenever you'd like (but we recommend getting there as soon as you can to be at the start of a game) Games we've played in the past (they tend to be easy to learn, quickish, and social) but open to others too: Social games Monikers, pictionary, poetry for neanderthals, decrypto, just one, codenames, wavelength, uno, taco cat goat cheese pizza, the chameleon, sushi go, boggle, bananagrams, cards against humanity, midnight taboo, fun facts, telestrations, slingz, don't get got, camel up, spot it, headbandz, sea salt & paper, anomia Deception games Werewolf, Coop, secret hitler, feed the kraken The event is totally free! Feel free to message me with any questions. 😊 We usually have 20 to 30 attendees.
